Refuse and Recycling
Refuse and Recycling
Perth and Kinross Council publishes information on its waste, recycling and uplift services on its website here:
https://www.pkc.gov.uk/article/14146/Bins-and-recycling
Locally, the following services are in operation:
Glass
Glass can be recycled at the bottle bank situated beside Kinloch Memorial Hall, Dundee Road, Meigle PH12 8SD.
It is no longer necessary to separate different colours of glass in these bins but please make sure that glass is clean, and that lids and tops are removed.
These bins are generally emptied on Sunday mornings (by which time they are usually quite full).
Bin collection days (Meigle and Ardler)
Green-lidded bins are collected every second Monday, with the intervening weeks alternating between blue-lidded and grey-lidded bins. Brown-lidded bins are collected every second Friday.
You can view specific dates in the table (right) - click on it to expand it and print it out.
(Please remember these dates are subject to change depending on bad weather, roadworks and public holidays)

Fly-tipping
Fly-tipping
Fly-tipping is the illegal dumping of rubbish in places where it shouldn't be. It is a serious environmental crime and can cause harm to wildlife, pets and livestock.
Perth and Kinross Council provides a chargeable bulky uplift service for residents at domestic properties.
Alternatively, you can dispose of your items at your local recycling centre free of charge.
For further information, including prices, see the council's website here.
Members of the public are encouraged to report fly-tipping to Perth and Kinross Council. The Council investigates every report of fly-tipping that it receives, and prosecutes significant cases of flytipping in court when possible. PKC can also issue fixed penalty notices of £500 for smaller cases.
You can report instances of fly-tipping online here.
You will need to provide information about the location of the fly-tipped waste, the type of waste, and the date it was first observed. Cases can be reported anonymously if preferred.
Alternatively, you can contact PKC's Customer Service Centre on 01738 476476 or email the Waste Enforcement Team at WasteEnforcement@pkc.gov.uk.
Further information on how to dispose of waste properly can be found on PKC's website here.
